Setup Menus

Line Block Mode

Factory default: Unselected

The setting of this option determines how much data is transmitted when the emulation is in Block mode and the Enter key is pressed.

When unselected, the contents of the screen (page) will be sent to the host. When selected, the contents of the current cursor line will be sent.

Multinational Character Sets

Factory default: Selected

The setting of this option determines which characters may be generated from the keyboard.

When unselected, the character set for the keyboard nationality specified in the Emulation Settings dialog box is mapped to G0, the default character set mode (as indicated on the status line). In effect, national characters from the Additional character set are swapped with Standard (ASCII) characters to form the National set mapped to G0, so the Additional set contains the missing ASCII characters. This means that you can still generate the full range of ASCII and Additional characters by using the Char Set function (refer to the PT250 Emulation chapter for details).

When this option is selected, both ASCII and Additional characters are available, enabling characters from any keyboard nationality to be generated.

Truncate At End Of Line

Factory default: Selected

This option determines what happens to received characters when the rightmost column of the display is reached.

When unselected, on reaching the end of the line, the next character will be placed in the first column of the following line. When this option is selected, following characters will not be displayed.

Screen Wrap

Factory default: Unselected

When screen wrap is selected, display memory is treated in a circular fashion. When the cursor reaches the last line it will automatically wrap to the first line again, and vice versa.

When screen wrap is unselected, the cursor will not move above the first line or below the last line.
